Ann Nadine Motycka (nee Bell) passed away at the Chatham-Kent Hospice on Monday November 20, 2023.  She was the much-loved wife of Jerry Motycka, mother of Jeff, Jeanette and Jennifer Motycka (Gerry Pfaff) and grandmother of River and Rain Pfaff.

Ann was born 81 years ago to the late Jack & Belle Bell.  She is survived by her siblings Nancy Shannon, Mike Bell (Denise) and Ken Bell (late Janet).  She was predeceased by her brother John Bell (survived by Florence).  She was an aunt and a friend to many.

Much love and light is extended to all of you who helped make Ann’s life meaningful.  A heartfelt thanks goes out to Dr. James Wheeler and the nurses, PSW’s, staff and volunteers at the Chatham-Kent Hospice, the Erie St. Clair LHIN and the VON.  Your kindness, compassion and your service is great.  You filled a need at a most vulnerable and sacred time.  Thank you for holding the space with us for our beloved wife and mother.  We will be honouring her at a later date with a private family funeral.

Please consider the Chatham-Kent Hospice in your charitable donations this year.
